14 DAY TRIAL // Sea lions are known to occasionally climb aboard boats, either because they want to have a close look at the weird two-legged creatures pacing back and forth on the deck or because they feel like taking a break from swimming.
Still, the sea lion in this video does something pretty amazing: it cuddles with one of the people aboard.
The footage, which was posted online some days ago, shows the sea lion placing its head in the man's lap, and looking as if it feels safe enough to take a nap.
The video was shot in the waters off Newport Beach.
It goes without saying that both the man and the people who witnessed the sea lion's behavior agree that this animal encounter was one of the most amazing experiences they've ever had.
